Abstinence at Care Net of IRC
In a world in which young people are bombarded with conflicting messages, teenagers are constantly seeking answers. Care Net Abstinence Educators desire to help teens and young adults find those answers. We understand that young people face all kinds of issues from sex, drugs and homosexuality, to relationships, dating and peer-pressure. Our goal is to help young people make wise and educated decisions now, knowing that it will affect and determine their future.
What we offer:
HOOKED!
What is Hooked?
"This study will help you discover that "hooking up” is the easy part, but “unhooking” from the bonds of a sexual relationship can have serious consequences. Take a practical look into new scientific research showing how sexual activity causes the release of brain chemicals which then result in emotional bonding and a powerful desire to repeat the activity. Dont miss out, this could be the best news you ever heard!"
Currently we are meeting at the IRSC Campus, Thursdays @ 11-12:15pm.
Please contact Seni or Rachael @ 772-569-7939 for more information.
Illusions
What is Illusions?
Illusions is an eye-opening presentation for teens that dramatically exposes the harmful effects of pornography. Through appropriate, guided interactions, students come to realize that just beneath its seductive surface, pornography is a dangerous underground world of deception, addiction and devastation.
Through this presentation students will learn how porn warps the brain’s perception of sex, love and intimacy. Then armed with this knowledge, our teens can become better prepared to resist its allure, embrace their purity and pursue healthy relationships.
Battle of the Sexes
What is Battle of the Sexes?
Battle of the Sexes, addresses the following issues: how different girls and guys are, setting standards in dating relationships, why you should wait until marriage to have sex, what are the best choices for you? The topics of discussion are presented through personal testimonies, interactive games, media presentations, skits, and dramas. BOTS is usually done in a 2hr muti-media presentation. Please contact for more info.
